Review on Automatic Irrigation System
Abstract: The Automatic Irrigation System is a contemporary technological innovation aimed at improving water efficiency in farming and landscaping uses. This system guarantees that water reaches plants according to real-time data including soil moisture, weather conditions, and set irrigation schedules by combining sensors, microcontrollers, and automated valves or pumps. The main objective of an automated irrigation system is to increase water efficiency, decrease waste, and boost crop production while limiting human …

Multi-Sensor System for Underwater Pothole Detection to Enhance Road Safety During Monsoon Seasons
Abstract: Monsoon seasons across India and similar tropical regions severely compromise road safety by causing water accumulation that conceals dangerous potholes beneath stagnant pools, leading to frequent vehicle damage, tire punctures, and fatal accidents. Traditional detection methods relying on smartphone accelerometers, ultrasonic sensors, or machine vision fail under flooded conditions due to acoustic signal reflection at water surfaces and optical distortions from glare and turbidity. This research proposes an innovative multi-sensor …

Design and Implementation of smart Grocery Packaging System
Abstract: The increasing demand for speed, accuracy, and cost efficiency in retail operations has accelerated the adoption of automation technologies in grocery packaging systems. Traditional grocery packaging methods rely heavily on manual labor, which often leads to errors in quantity measurement, inconsistent packaging quality, increased labor costs, and slower processing times. To address these challenges, this work presents the design and implementation of a smart automated grocery packaging system aimed specifically …

Pothole Detection utilising Machine Learning: A Review
Abstract: Potholes must be found and fixed quickly in order to maintain infrastructure, maximize transportation systems, and guarantee road safety. Using the Sequential API and the Keras library, this study presents a neural network model for pothole detection. Convolutional layers with ReLU activation, global average pooling, dense layers with dropout, and softmax activation for binary classification make up the model architecture. Image loading, resizing, array conversion, labeling, shuffling, normalization, and one-hot …
